3. How to use Lidocaine/Adrenaline Normogen
Your dentist will administer lidocaine/adrenaline by injection. Your dentist knows the correct way to administer this medicine.
The dose your dentist administers will depend on the type of pain relief you need. It will also depend on your body size, age, and physical condition, as well as the part of the body where the medicine will be injected. You will be given the smallest possible dose that produces the necessary effect.
Lidocaine/adrenaline prevents nerves from transmitting pain messages to the brain. It prevents you from feeling pain. It will start working a few minutes after the medicine is injected and the effect will gradually disappear when the medical procedure is finished.
Use in children and special populations
In children, the dose will be reduced based on weight and age.
If you have been given too much Lidocaine/Adrenaline Normogen
Severe side effects from receiving too much lidocaine/adrenaline require special treatment. Your dentist is specialized to act in these situations. The first signs of having received too much lidocaine/adrenaline are usually the following:
- Dizziness or slight drowsiness.
- Numbness of the lips and around the mouth.
- Numbness of the tongue.
- Hearing problems.
- Vision problems.
Your dentist will stop administering lidocaine/adrenaline as soon as these signs appear to reduce the risk of serious side effects. This means that if you experience any of them or think you have received too much lidocaine/adrenaline, you should inform your dentist immediately.
Other more serious side effects from receiving too much lidocaine/adrenaline include, among others, speech problems, irrational behavior, muscle spasms, convulsions, effects on the heart and blood vessels, loss of consciousness, coma, and interruption of breathing for a short period (apnea).
In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor, pharmacist, or call the Toxicology Information Service, phone 91 562 04 20, indicating the medicine and the amount used.

This information is intended only for healthcare professionals:
To avoid intravenous injection, aspiration should always be performed before injection. The use of the appropriate syringe for injection ensures perfect functioning and maximum safety against cartridge breakage. Only the contents of intact cartridges should be injected.
In order to avoid any risk of infection (e.g., prevention of hepatitis transmission), it is essential to use newly sterilized syringes and needles. The remaining contents of partially used cartridges should not be administered to other patients.
For the external disinfection of cartridges, 91% isopropyl alcohol or 70% ethanol without denaturants is recommended. Solutions containing heavy metals are not recommended, as they release ions (mercury, zinc, copper, etc.) that produce edema during the injection of local dental anesthetics.
When using any local anesthetic, oxygen, resuscitation equipment, and medications should be available.
Injection into an inflamed area should be avoided.
Before use, a visual inspection of the solution should be performed, and only particle-free, transparent solutions should be used.
The cartridges are for single use. If only part of the cartridge is used, the remaining contents should be discarded.
Use immediately after opening the cartridge.
The disposal of unused medicine and all materials that have come into contact with it will be carried out in accordance with local regulations.
